State: Southfield paramedic misled doc about โdeadโ woman
SOUTHFIELD, Mich. โ A suburban Detroit paramedic repeatedly failed to recognize that a young woman declared dead was alive and misled a doctor by phone about her condition, according to state authorities who offered more details about the strange case. The incident was bizarre because a funeral home discovered Timesha Beauchamp was alive when she gasped while her body was being prepared on Aug. 23. The latest details are in a state license suspension filed last week against Michael Storms, a Southfield firefighter and paramedic, who was part of a four-member team responding to the home of the 20-year-old woman. The Southfield fire chief said the incident still remains under investigation by the city. The state said Storms changed his report when it was uploaded a second time to an incident database the next day.

Attorney: Woman was in body bag 2 hours before found alive
Geoffrey Fieger, who was hired by Timesha Beauchamp's family, said Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2020 the Southfield woman hospitalized in critical condition and is on a respirator. He said he believes that after she was declared dead, police put Timesha in a body bag at her familys home and she was inside it, breathing, for about 2 hours before she arrived at the funeral home. My recollection is that the embalmer was actually there and was the person who opened the body bag, he said. Timesha receives three breathing treatments every day that are needed due to her medical condition, Fieger said. Fieger said the medical responders were told of Timeshas medical history, the medications she receives and about her daily breathing treatments.
